The Bruny field guide will include but not be limited to:
The goal of the project is to nurture a loving connection between people and the wondrous beauty of Bruny, to inspire a community of stewards deeply committed to the island’s long-term protection.
Bruny Island is a globally significant haven for birdlife, home to some of the world’s rarest birds – including the Forty-Spotted Pardalote, the Swift Parrot and the majestic Wedge-Tailed Eagle.
Bruny hosts wonderfully intact and diverse landscapes, including grasslands, grand forests, sub-alpine rainforests, coastal shrubs, rich and magical marine habitats and long wild stretches of coastline.
Bruny island’s varied coastline, rocky reefs and sandy gulches provide home and habitat to marine life as diverse as leatherjacket and flathead fishes, to Crayfish, Little Penguins and migratory whales.
The island’s human history extends back 40,000 years, with layers of continuous human connection with, love for and relationship to this land.
The Bruny Island online field guide is being coordinated by the Bruny Island Environment Network, Inala Nature Tours/Inala Foundation, and nature platform, Kuno.
The Bruny Island online field guide has a growing group of incredible people who are contributing writing, articles, interviews and photography to make this a rich and beautiful resource for the public, including but not limited to:

Kuno uses the Australian Walking Track Grading System as a guide for the grading of walks on this platform.
This grading system for the difficulty of paddling sea, estuaries and large areas of open water has been developed by PaddleNSW qualified Sea Instructors to assist in describing waterways.
The 40-spotted Pardalote is a very specialised bird and one of the rarest on planet Earth. Expert Dr Andrew Hingston explains some of this beautiful endangered bird's ecology.
